NEW STALKER-FOCUSED QUEST
Assume control of the mysterious Stalker during an illuminating new Quest that delves directly into his fascinating backstory. A former Low Guardian during the fall of the Orokin empire, this fearsome assassin now conceals a remarkable secret – one with significant implications for the rest of the Origin System.
JADE
Evoking the solemn — yet melodic — hymns of a choir, the newest Warframe sings songs of devastation as she heralds both life and death across the Origin System’s many battlefields. Bless allies and damn enemies with a powerful suite of Abilities that includes the punishing fury of the Jade Light itself.
ABILITIES
Passive: The Anointed
Jade’s profound understanding of the relationship between life and death grants her two Aura Mod Slots.
Light’s Judgement:
Create a well of light that heals allies and hurts enemies. Those who enter the well will be surrounded by Verdicts that amplify Jade’s other Abilities.
Symphony of Mercy:
Cycle through three songs that strengthen allies. Power of The Seven increases Ability Strength by +30%. Deathbringer increases Weapon Damage by +100%. Spirit of Resilience increases Shield Regeneration by +25%. Extend the duration of each song by killing enemies surrounded by Verdicts.
Ophanim Eyes:
Jade summons an accusatory gaze that slows nearby enemies and dissolves shields and armor. When the gaze falls upon allies, they can be revived from a distance.
Glory on High:
Soar with destructive power. Use alternate-fire to detonate Judgments, causing an explosion of Jade Light. Enemies affected by Light's Judgment strengthen the explosion.
JADE COLLECTION
Become enraptured by the swelling sounds of Jade’s euphonic masterpiece. This collection includes the Jade Warframe and a full chorus of accouterments including (but not limited to):
[h4]Jade’s Ensemble[/h4]
- Harmony: Harmony triumphs over hate. Its Heavy Attacks instantly kill enemies that are open to Mercy kills. Defeat hordes in this manner to empower allies with extended Melee Range.
- Cantare: In moments of despair, let the battle resonate with song. Canatare’s blades lodge into the battlefield and return upon reload. When returning blades strike many enemies, Cantare empowers allies with increased Magazine Capacity.
- Evensong: Counter the dread of battle with a song of praise. Fully drawn arrows fired by Evensong impale enemies and empower ally weapons with Multishot.
[h4]Jade Warframe[/h4]
Become enraptured by the song of devastation. Through her, the Jade Light can be a force of destruction or a source of support.
[h4]Jade Aureolt Helmet[/h4]
Affirm Jade’s sacred nature.
[h4]Motetique Signa[/h4]
Much as music enriches the atmosphere, the Motetique Signa enhances your appearance.
YARELI PANDEA
A new Relic of the Old War emerges from watery depths, imbued with the boldness and ferocity of Hunhow himself. Add a resplendent, seaborne vigor to your own Loadout with Pandea Skins for Yareli, Merulina, and her Kompressa Secondary Weapon, as well as Customizations that include the Rubra Sugatra and the Merulina Pandea Domestik Drone.
NEW GAME MODE: ASCENSION
The Stalker’s stronghold is under intensive assault from marauding Corpus forces, but what they’re after
must remain safe. You’ll need to initiate an emergency evacuation before embarking on a grueling ascent through enemy-infested elevator shafts to the Extraction waiting for you above.
Play Ascension to acquire the parts needed to craft Jade and her angelic weapons. Doing so will also award Motes that can be exchanged directly for the parts and Blueprints.
OPERATION: BELLY OF THE BEAST
The irresistible power of Jade’s sacred light has attracted some… unwanted attention. Confront this threat and collect hard-earned Rewards in a new Clan-based Operation!
We’ll have more details for you soon, so stay tuned.
NEW CUSTOMIZATIONS:
Enjoy the thrill of the hunt wherever your journey takes you! The imposing Terror Landing Craft Skin was lifted directly from the Stalker’s own Arsenal of malevolently-themed gear.
QOL IMPROVEMENTS: ENEMY SCALING AND STATUS REWORK
Enjoy new quality of life changes to improve the overall balance of core Warframe gameplay! We’ve made adjustments to streamline the various types of Enemy Health, Armor and Shields for a more approachable system, and introduced recommended resistances from the Star Chart to help you inflict maximum damage against specific Factions. Certain Status Effects have also been boosted to make them more viable during combat. For more information, check out our
